Wondering Whether there will be Weather

I still don't believe people when they tell me that it rains all the time in Seattle. This is my second time visiting the lovely (supposedly rainy) city, but have yet to experience the miserable weather!

Washington was pretty cool. The people that we met were awesome! Our first night, we stayed with a fellow Nomad's dad... and played some intense games of ping pong! Quite enjoyable :) The next day, we were shown around the delicious side of Seattle by Pastor John, who took us out to eat burgers, ice cream, and coffee. Also quite enjoyable :) We even stayed with Ms. Robb, who had a beautiful view at her house, overlooking the ocean, including a very short walk down to the beach, where we proceeded to see seals swimming & ate some brie and crackers. Yum. We also stayed with Sean's brother's family... with their cat that has thumbs, and their dog that just loves everyone (and Sean's adorable niece... need I say more?)

On Thursday, we drove over to Spokane for a screening at Whitworth University. Wow. The students there rocked my socks off! Amy & Morgan were great hosts, and sent us off with goodies for the road. The students even stuck around for an hour after the screening to talk to Jane & I about getting involved with LiNK :) Fun times.

Next Stops: The beautiful, rainy state of Oregon
Also Seattle... tomorrow morning. We have to leave Portland at 4:00am to get there. Hmmm....
